THE NEXT PRESIDENT.
SOME vEnY oossIrY NOTES
ABOUT Sherman aud his Aspirations for the
Chief Niagi,tracy-Tho Gnriicid.rosts
Incidental NIenty Dispatch Full ~
OF Some Good suggestions.

NEW YORK, Feb. 93.-Tho Sun has the
following special from Washington:
Senator Sherman's resignntion Of Ills
position rs President OF the Senate Is zen.
orally accepted as his FRS! open declara.
ton OF his Presidential candidacy, and a
signal 10 his supporters and friends thu,
he isin tho field for himself, and that HE
campaign has formally opened.
6herman's lieutenants have been put.
ting In some quiet but very effective work
for some months, and the results have
greatly encouraged thcm. This movement
OF Mr.. Sherman's, who rarely makes pollti.
cal mistakes, will still further encourage
them. Mr.. Sherman accepted the Pfesi.
dency when 1t was a good advertisement
for him. He leaves 1t when 1t tis just as
good an advertisement Tor him to do 80.
Ho Is now left free to attend to his own
political fences, which reach from New
York 10 Mansfield, 0.
In view OF the prominence into which
MIR. Sherman Ia coming rs Il candidate in
1883, the political nituation in Ohio be.
comes interesting. For thirty years Ohio
has supported Sherman, and kept him TO
the front in the Houae, and In tho Sen.
ate, and In the Treasury; but every time
his name has como up for the Presidency
he has failed to obtain solid delegation
from his State in National Convention,
So long as Ohio refuses to support him
with an undivided delegation he has small
chance for nomination. The appearance
indicates that next year Ohio will send a
solid delegation for Sherman, and that tho
delegation will stick by him to the last.
In his long career as chief manager of
Ohio Federal patronage, hs hag, OF course,
made many enemies, and they have had
sufficient strength to divide the delepa-
tions to the National conventions. When
the Republicans went out OF power sher-
man was relieved from his trouble, and
when he could no longer command patron-
age, and 1t was no longer expected Of him,
the Ohio Republicans began to think
more freely at bis real merits and recog.
nize the fact that lie was the only man
Left that could restore the old political
prestige Of the State. ~
Back OF Sherman, as a commanding
figure, is horde Of more or less able gen
tlemen who would be glad to zee him out
Of the way in order that they may have q
chance for advancement. They have
come to tho conclusion that the only way
to do 80 is 10 make him President, II Dog
sible, and now Mr.. Shsrmeu has the ad-
ditional strength Of self.interest among
such men rs Foraker, Foster. Butterworth,
Keller, Mckinley, Hayes, Cox, Bingham
and others. The goal all these gentlemen
seek is the U. S. Senate, and between
them and that body the figure Of John
Sherman alXaYa looma un. -

EDUCATIONAL

For the FIFTY-THIRD SESSION, which opens
September 10, 1887, we have pleasure in an
nouncing in addition to the advantages heretofore
offered the following new facilities:
1. A general renovation of buildings and i'm
provement of grounds, accomplished during the
past session, making cur arrangements for the
! comfort and health OF students very superior.
Among these VIC note especially an ARTEsIAN
WELL, furnishing abundant supply of pure
water, absolutely free from tho possibility of con-
tamination by surface drainage
II. The enlargement of our Scientific Course by
the addition Of an Adjunct Professor of Physics
aud the purchase of large amount of new appa-
ratus, to be imported from Europe for that de-
partment.
III. An entirely now feature is our Depart
ment of Physical Culture" upon the Sargent sys-
TEN, under the care of Professor j. B. Crenshaw,
a. NJ. 1t is designed to do away with the re-
proach that college training too often destroys
the health of the body in its efforts to develop the
mind. 1t offers regular course of systematic ex-
ercises under competent instructor, and with
apparatus constructed not to test the superiority
of one student over another, but to develop each
one individually to the best he is capable Of. Ro-
business of health ana vigor and grace Of body
arc the objects sought. Striking results have
been attained at Harvard University and else
where where this system has been tried, and we
deem its establishment here an important ad-
vance Those who are specially interested in this
feature will please write for our special circular
". The new brick building which is being
erected for the Department of Physical Culture
will also contain
HOT AND COLD WATER BATHS. SHOWER
